NEW MEXICO LIST
My wife TIGGR's mother was born here in Hondale in 1906.
We came back for a visit and to spread some ashes of
her here and other places at her request.

Our Family still owns a Patented Farm just east of here and my Cousin works for the man who now owns the land.
Hondale was just one of the water stop towns along the
Old Railroad that passed through here.
It is now also gone.
